Last week we read the prophesy of the prophet Jeremiah. This week we’ll read the words God gave to Isaiah.
The people of Israel were discouraged so God reminded them to look to how He kept His promises to Abraham. What God promises, He does!
Isaiah 51:1-3
The Lord says, “Listen to me, you who want to do what is right.
Pay attention, you who look to me.
Consider the rock you were cut out of.
Think about the rock pit you were dug from.
2 Consider Abraham. He is the father of your people.
Think about Sarah. She is your mother.
When I chose Abraham, he did not have any children.
But I blessed him and gave him many of them.
3 You can be sure that I will comfort Zion’s people.
I will look with loving concern on all their destroyed buildings.
I will make their deserts like Eden.
I will make their dry and empty land like the garden of the Lord.
Joy and gladness will be there.
People will sing and give thanks to me
.
When we remember what God did in the past, we can rest in knowing that He is still working in our lives today and in the future.
PRAY FOR ISRAEL TO REMEMBER, REST AND REJOICE THROUGH FAITH IN YESHUA.
